The Fiorentina coach after the victory in the catch-up game against Cremonese: “We’re on the right track, but it’s a long road. No Moise case, I wouldn’t have called him up, but Dzeko got injured.”

Fiorentina broke their press silence after their last-minute victory. For Vanoli’s team, the win against Cremonese is a crucial boost for morale, spirit, and the standings. “We’ll have to work hard, we’re catching up. Keep your head down and pedal. The last week has been difficult with players coming down with the flu and other situations. The boys have been exceptional. I’m happy we won without conceding a goal.“ The Viola coach then spoke about the team’s current situation. ”Parma was a blow, but I see a bright future ahead, even after the defeat in the last game. I see a lot of individual growth, look at Fagioli. Now we need to make a leap forward as a team. The team is working hard to get out of this: today’s victory shows us a light, and we have to follow it.“

It was impossible not to return to the Kean issue. ”I told him that I wouldn’t even take him to the bench out of respect for the group. He had an agreement with the club that could no longer be postponed, so he left. And I didn’t want to call him up. Then I didn’t have Dzeko available, he had trained well today, so I brought him on. There’s no mystery. After the goal, I wanted to celebrate with him. If I hadn’t been influenced, I would have done the dance with him too. Please, let’s avoid throwing more shit at our team, we have enough already. A lot of nasty things are being said, but none of it is true.” Finally, Vanoli spoke about the January transfer window, between signings and a possible revolution on the horizon. “We have to be careful, something will have to change, but we’ll have to do it with the right mindset and without forcing it. The club knows what I’m asking for, there’s dialogue. Someone like Salomon, with the desire he’s shown, is an added value, and today we saw that.”
